This is a landscape painting with the material being oil on canvas. The details are amazing. The man bowing on the ship is so vivid though the actual size of him on the canvas is only about half a cetermeter!

This painting of the sunset is great for it successfully creates a depressive while peaceful atmosphere around the painting and makes visitors stop and gaze for a long while. The color of trees is black, which is weird and rare in landscape paintings, so I guess that is why I feel depressed when I watch it. This painting is made of oil on linen and created by Alex Katz, who is an artist born in 1987, a much more modern-time painter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I favor this portrait painting because it depicts the peacefulness, soft and gentleness from the character’s eyes. The drapes on her dress are also detailed and vivid. The play of light and shadow shows the high skill of the artist’s portrait painting. This painting is made of oil on canvas and created by Beaux, who is an artist living from 1855 to 1942.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
